Import Tips & Compliance

• UN2210 certification required for all bulk flexible IBCs containing paraformaldehyde

• Liner integrity test certificates prevent moisture-induced depolymerization claims

• Entry summary must specify 'chemical intermediate, not for retail sale' to avoid Chapter 38 classification
